Very Sad News
I was saddened to read the post from RAF Waddington, RIP Sir.It is with great sadness that the Station Commander of RAF Waddington announces the death of Wing Commander Phil McConnell who died on Sunday following a short battle with cancer.
Wing Commander McConnell, a father of three, was Officer Commanding 51 Squadron and was highly regarded throughout his military career.
Many will remember Phil for his great sense of humour, enthusiasm and ability to always see the positive in every situation and person.
Our thoughts at this sad time are with his family and friends.
